Hot Rod History

I took this shot this morning of the original Isky Racing Cams building.
It's on Sepulveda just a few doors South of Jefferson in Culver City I think ?

Thought some of you might find it interesting. It's just used for storage now.

I met Mr. Isky one night at Ascot Speedway and talked for awhile. He was a really nice guy.

Cool shot...and thanks! BTW, compare the lift/duration numbers of an "Isky 3/4 race" cam for a Ford Flathead with those of an early 912...
